New Delhi, Feb. 8 -- In a significant achievement under its ongoing mission-mode drive, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has crossed the milestone of completing over one crore Mandatory Biometric Updates (MBUs) for school children studying in 83,000 schools across the country.
UIDAI initiated this special MBU drive for school children in September 2025 after a successful technological integration with the Unified District Information System for Education Plus (UDISE ) application, which enabled visibility of the MBU status of children at schools.
